Ben, that is horrible luck. Couldn't you have switched them while he was busy with the other players? <G>

Position is often mistaken for luck in poker, and that's like having the white pieces in chess. A player who knows the basic starting hands would beat a world champion every hour if the basic guy played last every hand. Knowing what the other player did and him not knowing what you're going to do is nearly an insurmountable advantage over 100 hands or so.
